Does competition between hydrogen and methane consumption by soil microbes lead to climate impacts?

UK Centre for Ecology and Hydrology - Edinburgh UK CEH
Summary. Emissions of hydrogen (H2) can act as a secondary greenhouse gas that distorts the atmospheric methane (CH4) sink. Soil bacteria can utilise H2 and CH4, but ecological mechanisms underpinning this competition remain poorly understood. Read more

Evaluating role of microjet plasma interactions with slurry to mitigate ammonia volatilisation

University of Warwick School of Life Sciences
  Research Group: CENTA - Central England NERC Training Alliance
Project Highlights. Microjet plasma will create a vortex in slurry to improve absorption of plasma species to liquid. pH of slurry will reduce leading to conservation of N, mitigating ammonia losses. Read more
